A NOTE REGARDING MY WEST PUBLICATION

I am pleased to forward information on my published title, Copyright Litigation
Handbook, 2012-2013 ed. This handy, portable desktop volume is a comprehensive guide to copyright litigation from pre-litigation practices including evaluating claims, interviewing clients, working with the U.S. Copyright Office to drafting cease and desist letters and choosing the correct forum and claims, together with case law related to seizures, bonds and related practice. Copyright Litigation Handbook, 2012- 2013 ed guides you through the process of filing acomplaint, taking
a case to trial, and obtaining judgments and attorneys fees. The New York Law Journal
called it “an indispensable guide”. No other publication covers this
intersection of the Copyright Act with the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure. It contains case citations and practical tips related to
motion practice, pre-trial and trial procedural tips, checklists and
forms. Appendices include the entire Copyright Act, the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of Evidence. Complete information
regarding Copyright
Litigation Handbook, 2012-2013 ed. is available through the
link provided below. Since its first publication in 2006, this work has almost
doubled in size and is updated annually. I hope that beginners will find
guidance and that experts will find it a useful time-saver. Sincerely,

DescriptionThis publication is a desktop practice guide for
litigators, handily sized for portability. Featuring practical,
detailed guidance from an experienced federal trial lawyer, it walks
attorneys step-by-step from the moment a prospective client calls,

with sample forms, pleadings, motions, checklists, and practice tips;
and includes up-to-date citations. The Appendix includes the full
text of three essential documents for the copyright litigator: the

legal analysis, and primary law.
